The first?

Damn! I had an aunt with earrings like that! All this time I thought she was just weird... I never suspected she was a Geek girl!

Isn't local storage part of HTML 5?

Why does any company 're-brand' itself?
What was wrong with the old brand?
Finally, does a change in name equate to a change in fact?
Just asking.

The originating TTL of a packet is decided by the application that created it.
Since there is no mandatory original TTL, there is little use in filtering by TTL.

If some ISP decided to start filtering packets based on a low TTL, all application vendors would respond with updates that originated all packets at the maximum TTL.

Except for a few research networks, all V6 traffic runs through the same 'tubes' as V4.
So all else being equal, V6 data rates should be no different than V4.

But all is not equal.

V6 has several refinements over V4, which tend to enhance throughput.

Which begs the question... how many single stack systems are left out there? Is this really an issue?

All current desktop operating systems are dual stack capable.

Most current 'big iron' routers, switches & etc are dual stack capable.

Lower level stuff like dumb switches don't give a damn.

That pretty much leaves the consumer grade DSL and Cable gateway.
Newer ones are dual stack, but most aren't.
However, given the crappy quality of these devices, they will all be doorstops within a couple of years... and replaced with dual stack gateways ( of similar crappy quality).

So should we really be worried about leaving anyone behind?

Uh, Read RFC 1.

December 1969.

I'll agree that Napster immensely popularized the use of P2P tech... but it wasn't the first, not by a long shot.

Apple is certainly not a carp company.
More likely, Apple will try...
        Grouper, in your choice of blackened or grilled. If that doesn't work...
        Crab, boiled or baked. And as a last resort...
        Barracuda.

Uh, why?

Which is the Congress of South Dakota.

While I do not believe that Ted Klaudt raped and murdered two goats in 1997, it is rather disturbing that Ted Klaudt has so far refused to deny that Ted Klaudt raped and murdered two goats in 1997 ( one named Ted, the other named Klaudt).

If Ted Klaudt is not guilty of all these rapes (and murders), why would he not publicly deny it?
It's not like he has any association with Glenn Beck, who has refused to deny the rape and murder of two young girls in 1990.

But with these new unfounded accusations it is more important than ever that Ted Klaudt and Glenn Beck distance themselves from each other to avoid guilt by association.

Ted Klaudt and Glenn Beck should simply cooperate with the courts, police, FBI and CIA with total access to Ted Klaudt and Glenn Becks correspondence, social calendars, financial statements, bank accounts, email, web history & etc, to put this issue to rest for once and all.

After all, if Ted Klaudt and Glenn Beck have nothing to hide then why shouldn't Ted Klaudt and Glenn Beck show the proof that they are not rapist/murders?

I just don't get it.

I, for one, do not believe that Google uses Puppy Juice to power its data centers.

However, since the allegation has been raised, it is unsettling that Google has (so far) failed to deny the widespread use of Puppy Juice in their data centers.

If Google indeed is innocent of the use of Puppy Juice, then why will they not at least issue a statement to that effect?
Hopefully Google will issue a clarification soon as to their Puppy Juice consumption policy.

Indeed, their failure to deny the use of Puppy Juice in data centers, tends to lend credence to the rumors circulating in Zambia that Google employees are provided a monthly ration of Puppy Juice as an employment benefit... and Google does not even deny this benefit exists.

Its as though Google thinks that as long as they ignore the Puppy Juice scandal it will go away!

Again, I personally do not believe that Google endorses the consumption of Puppy Juice...but the fact that they have not yet issued an official denial of the use of Puppy Juice, in the face of all this evidence, has left me wondering.

Especially, considering the recent rumors that have been surfacing in Iceland, about Kitty Juice.

I'm so glad of that!

Its dominant because it comes before 'FUN'.

"It is used in connection with identical goods"...

I went to the SPARC International website to see what these 'identical goods' might be.

Ironically, Googles 'Safe' browsing warned me not to visit the place!... it seems to be hosting "12 trojan(s), 8 exploit(s), 6 scripting exploit(s)"

I went there anyway and found that they sell...
'SPARC Architecture License' and 'Type 5 Keyboard Interface License'
And that's it.

I was so disappointed! Because I thought perhaps the site would be a new source of cool experimenter parts, microcontroller development systems, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Inertial Measuring Units, GPS modules, accelerometers, humidity sensors...

But all SPARC International sells is... paper. (Sorry, they don't actually SELL anything, they License it).

In any event, I don't think that any of SPARC Internationals potential customers could possibly confuse it with "SparkFun" and its offerings.

The word "Spark" is in common usage and has been for what, HUNDREDS of years?
The product line is entirely different... FAR from the claim that they are selling "identical goods". Hell they don't even actually SELL ANYTHING!

Oh yeah!

Osama!

OBL! Every one knows him around here!

Man, he's been partying it up here in Fort Myers for years. Usually you first see him around time for Spring Break, rolling into town in a caravan of Hummers and Greyhounds loaded with Turkish smoke and more jiggly girls than you can imagine, straight from Mardis Gras in New Orleens.

OBL isn't one for drinking Coladas though... he usually starts with a Margarita or two, then its on to Jack Daniels with coke, winding up with straight Jack (with extra Jack, on a really rowdy night).

He's only about 5 months older than me, but with his beard and all he looked a lot older. So I said 'OBL, you ought to clean it up a bit" Now he's lookin really sharp with his goatee. The chicks just love it, and you'll see often see them giggling as he adjusts his robes, for some reason.

Most people don't know he's an engineer, but around here he's got people all riled up about how badly designed are the I-75 and US-41 bridges across the Caloosahatchee. He's always going on and on about how those bridges are so fragile they could be taken out with a barge or medium sized aircraft.

When he's sober you'll often find him in Centennial Park playing chess. Someone told me he was going to join the chess club, but couldn't find a sponsor. That was a few years back. Not long after that the club went under.

Hmmm.

So anyway, just like Adolf, Pol Pot, the Bush family, and many other historical figures, he's found a new home here in the land of Sunshine and Perpetual Vacation, where life is just a party from December to May (or is it May / December).
